Answer:

y= 11/2 x+1/2

Explanation:

Slope Intercept form: y = mx + b where m = slope of the line, b = y intercept and (x,y) are coordinate points on the line.

To put this in slope-intercept form, you need to solve the equation for y

-11x + 2y = 1

+11x +11x add 11x to both sides of the equation

+2y = 1 + 11x

2 2 Divide both sides by 2 (so y is by itself)

y = 11/2x + 1/2
